Pool inspections are an often overlooked part of home inspection. A pool adds tremendous value to a property, so it only makes sense that you would want to inspect the pool just as you would every other element of the home. Before hiring a pool inspection in NJ, first learn what the inspection process should cover.
To get the best value for your money, find a company that performs thorough inspections. While the pool inspection is being performed, watch and make sure that the exterior elements like gates or barriers, lighting, diving boards, and the structure of the patio is also being looked at. These are all critical safety concerns, and could cost a lot of money to repair.
The inspection will undoubtedly include assessment of the drains, pumps, filters, and valves. If any of these parts needs to be replaced, the inspector will let you know and give you a rough estimate of the potential cost.
Unlike pool maintenance companies, Atlantic Pool Leak Detection is not going to try to upsell you on pool maintenance or repair services because they actually do not provide these services anyway.

Of course, the inspection company should be thoroughly knowledgeable about your pool equipment, and might be able to refer you to the most reputable pool service company in your area.
